This page was dedicated to Xfce Release Engineering for the 4.2.0 major
release. It'll probably be updated when we start the 4.4.0 release
process. Until then, there are some bits and pieces from the 4.2.0
process.

Announcements

Users who would like to send Xfce 4.2.0 announcements to
news sites should pick up the Short announcement
text from the Release Announcement below (don't use a
draft, but the version marked as final!). But, please
don't send announcements until the website has
been updated on 2005/01/16!!

To coordinate the process of announcing Xfce a bit, here's
a list of news site and people who will send announcements
to that site, so we don't send more than one announcement
per site! Drop me a
note if you want to be listed here.

Preliminary tarballs

Here you can find preliminary source tarballs (and Fedora/RH
RPMs) for Xfce 4.2.0. These are unofficial tarballs,
which do not include the final release, but a last-preview
version targeted at binary packagers and porters to pre-check
that everything works as expected!
